Hall of famer Andre Ward Has Revealed That One Fight That Could Tempt Him Back Into The Ring, Me And Anthony Joshua
Boxing Hall of Famer Andre Ward has sent shockwaves through the combat sports world by revealing the one fight that could lure him out of retirement — a blockbuster showdown with former two-time heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua at London’s iconic Wembley Stadium.
Ward, 41, retired undefeated in 2017 with a record of 32–0, cementing his legacy as one of the sport’s most technically gifted fighters. Known for his defensive mastery, ring intelligence, and adaptability, the former super middleweight and light heavyweight champion has consistently resisted calls for a comeback — until now.
In a recent interview, Ward admitted that while most fights don’t interest him, the idea of facing Joshua in front of a roaring U.K. crowd would be enough to reignite his competitive fire.
“Me and Anthony Joshua“
“Me and Anthony Joshua — that is a fight I would take at Wembley Stadium,” Ward said. “If I’m ever coming back, it would have to be for something truly special, and that’s one of the few that fits the bill.”

The matchup would be nothing short of a stylistic and size spectacle. Ward, who last fought at light heavyweight, would be moving up dramatically to face the 6’6” power-punching Joshua — a man with Olympic gold credentials and a history of thrilling nights at Wembley. For fans, it’s a fantasy fight blending pure boxing skill against raw heavyweight power.
Joshua, currently on a resurgence after regaining form in recent outings, has yet to respond publicly to Ward’s comments. But the potential pairing has already sparked a flurry of debate online. Could Ward’s technical brilliance neutralize Joshua’s size and strength? Or would the jump in weight prove too steep, even for one of the sport’s most cerebral tacticians?
While Ward made it clear he’s not announcing a comeback just yet, his willingness to name an opponent has fueled speculation that boxing may witness one of the most surprising returns in modern history. And if it happens, Wembley Stadium could be the stage for a cross-generational clash that fans never saw coming.
